Hasta la vista baby!
I think it says a lot when you can make such an important announcement AND cover the highlights of the last 50 weeks, all in 48 seconds.

Who?
That does improve the average height of the Democrat field, but it leaves no champion in the running for men who need abortions. Maybe Bloomberg will take up the banner of “federal funding for tranny abortions”. Somebody has to address the really important issues.
Another Marxist bites the dust.

And the Democrat field of candidates for the Presidency becomes even more white....
Where is the diversity? Where is the love?
Another Democrat gone? Well, uh... bye!
Adios, Who-Leon.
I thought this guy was a professional protester, hate monger and general pain in the ass. I also thought he was dead. Maybe I was thinking of Fidel.
